advanced composites

Advanced composites are strong, lightweight materials made by combining two or more different substances, typically fibers and a matrix, to achieve superior performance. The fibers provide strength and stiffness, while the matrix binds them together, protecting and supporting the fibers. These materials are used in high-performance industries like aerospace, automotive, and sporting goods because they offer excellent strength-to-weight ratios, durability, and resistance to heat and corrosion. Examples include carbon fiber-reinforced plastics and aerospace-grade plastics, enabling safer, more efficient designs that traditional materials cannot match.
